Re: [Talk-GB] Possible use of OS triangulation stations to determine aerial imagery offset
I'm pleased to say that I have had confirmation from Ordnance Survey that their triangulation station data can be used under the Open Government Licence v3. I have documented this on the wiki: [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Gregrs/Ordnance_Survey_triangulation_stations]. I will try to look into making this data more accessible to the community so that it can be used to more accurately determine the offset of aerial imagery. I have experimented with this idea around the Rugby area and it seems to work well. I am also in the process of analysing the relationship between this data and the large number of 'man_made=survey_point's already in the database in order to determine whether it might be feasible/useful to import/merge the data. It looks like similar data has been imported from IGN in France. Of course I won't do this until it's been properly discussed.
